Service Disruption

Dear All,

Please note that normal, well, usual, service, will be disrupted due to school holidays. Please bear with me as I carry out important child maintenance work.



The weather has gone a bit chilly and we will be doing lots of healthy outdoor pursuits, so I have invested in some sensible headgear.



And during these holidays, I am going to keep calm and collected, and not go all peculiar...


Must go, even as I type, boys are carrying out Hussain Bolt type sprint time trials in corridor upstairs. Only now do I realise that concrete floors are something we should have put on our non-negotiable wishlist when house hunting.. elephants...herd of...give me strength

  2. TEE HEE. I know Linda will educate you, but re: "cat's bum"Blighty. Just go and have a look at one, then imagine the headmaster's lips making the same shape.
    Linda, do you think that it is a saying that came from Irish nuns educating us here in Australia, a million years ago? I remember their lips were always doing cat's bums impersonations at Star of the Sea in Southport. Probably something to do with our behaviour.
    love

  3. Oh dear, school holidays... I send strength from this 'boy house' to your 'boy house'. We have just had a long weekend, due to a 'pupil free day' on Monday (the more you pay the less you get) and I'm spent. Shoving them out the door now. Bye boys, love ya, mean it, miss you already. Deep sigh. A-M xx PS. Love the head gear!

  6. Oh, I have a pair of leopard ears like those ones. They are great. I find they lift my creativity no end. Very useful indeed!

  7. I wish I had kids so that I'd have an excuse to buy those ears.

  9. Linda and Louise....my husband tells me often I have a 'cats bum' face when I don't get my way.
    Can I blame the nuns?

    Blighty you have to come visit us and get educated.....

  10. Dear Mrs Blighty, I love school holidays. I think that there is nothing nicer than hanging out with one's children. I hope that you and your boys have a lovely time. We will wait patiently for you to come back with tales of your adventures.

  12. Have a wonderful half term, dear Blighty. So nice to be 'off schedule', at least for a while. Very much enjoyed the previous post, thank you for the wonderful laugh!
